At that time, when Zhu Yuanzhang first met Liu Bowen, he gave a big banquet. During the dinner, he felt bored and asked Liu Bowen if he could write a poem. Liu Bowen said modestly that writing poetry is an essential skill of every Confucian, so Zhu Yuanzhang asked him to write a poem with bamboo chopsticks as the theme.
Liu Bowen immediately spoke the first two sentences of this poem, citing the bamboo allusions in ChristianRandPhillips. This allusion is very famous. People with a little culture will think of it when they see bamboo, so Zhu Yuanzhang is not satisfied with these two poems. He thinks that Liu Bowen's talent is so much, so he shakes his head.
Then, Liu Bowen said the last two poems. Zhu Yuanzhang listened to the exultation and felt that he and Liu Bowen were really like-minded and hit it off. Because the Han Dynasty was a long-standing dynasty in ancient China, many people who want to get land often regard the Han Dynasty as a model when expressing their thoughts.
Zhu Yuanzhang was such a person at that time. Hearing that Liu Bowen used the inheritance of the Han Dynasty for more than 400 years to hint at his future country, he was naturally delighted. Moreover, Liu Bowen compared himself to Sean in his poems, which made Zhu Yuanzhang feel that his future and future were brighter.
The so-called "borrowing" in Liu Bowen's poem is actually an allusion to chopsticks, so this poem is close to Zhu Yuanzhang's bamboo chopsticks proposition; Secondly, Liu Bowen borrowed chopsticks to talk about what was in his heart and the situation in the world, which was also in Zhu Yuanzhang's heart.
